    Great news indeed.

    What did you think of Our Love To Admire? I don't think it really lived up to Antics/Turn on the Bright Lights... Maybe it's just me though.

    Hurrah!
    Yeah got an email about it yesterday, something to look forward to alright.

    Michellenman - I thought OLTA was a great album, just a bit different to the other two.- then again Antics was quite different to TOTBL

    Better off playing your Joy Division singles at 33 RPM.


  • Registered Users Posts: 687 ✭✭✭Sútalún


    I thought OLTA was amazing at first, but now after listening to it for ages I don't think it will age as well as their first two.

    Really can't wait for this though, been waiting for some type of news for a while!

    I'll listen to JD if I want to listen to JD.
    I'll listen to Interpol if I want to listen to Interpol.
    Both amazing bands.
    But eh..they're different. Every band has influences.

    I thought they were gonna split after I saw them live last summer. They just looked like a band who didn't care anymore so I am delighted to read this post. I hope they took ample time off and I would rather they take their time and return with something amazin than to just release any old first batch of songs like they did with OLTA.

    I like OLTA but I rarely listen from start to finish like TOTBL and Antics. For me it's the first Interpol album that has boring songs. All Fired Up's chorus is horrible and it the point I always switch off.

    To say I'm excited is a massive understatement.

    New album = Tour


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,747 ✭✭✭MikeHoncho


    My favourite band. OLTA might'nt have been as good as the others but it did have Lighthouse which is such a haunting song. Gave me shivers when I heard it live the first time. Can't wait.

    Also my fav band...Hopefully they'll deliver the goods.

    And you ask this in the Interpol thread because.....?

    I like you. You are funny


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,024 ✭✭✭homerun_homer


    ;) Just trying to keep it real for the 'Pol Y'all.


  • Registered Users Posts: 260 ✭✭Kid V


    Maybe we'll be waiting for that new Interpol album for a while....

    Paul Banks or should i say Julian Plenti has a solo album coming out http://www.nme.com/news/interpol/44465


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,024 ✭✭✭homerun_homer


    It makes interesting news, plus Paul has a Tasche now which is funny to see. Did you go to his site to hear a snippet of music?


  • Registered Users Posts: 260 ✭✭Kid V

    That is quite interesting news! Surprised how Pitchfork havent picked up on it yet.....

    Ye i have heard the snippet. Its different which is great to hear. Interpol are famous for being different yet the same, very much the same! The Interpol effect.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,401 ✭✭✭shortys94


    Yea I saw this earlier too, I like the sample thats on the website, but the Interpol album is being rehearsed already so no worries really on waiting longer for that.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,401 ✭✭✭shortys94


    I'd really like to hear The Specialist live, or some of their other EPs like precipitate, or Mind Over Time, some really good tracks.

    Here's some older tracks from 'Julian Plenti'.

    lol...in fairness though their first album was great...the last album was terrible ...(no songs and no dynamics)....hopefully they'll go back to making kick ass tunes again.....with the same passion as obstacle 1

    I dont understand why so many people dismiss OLTA, Mammoth and the Heinrich Maneuvre are brilliant songs live, the lighthouse is a favourite of many, although its one of my disliked songs of theirs.

    Too many people just start banging on about how it sucks compared to TOTBL instead of giving an opinion on the album itself....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 26 cozziej


    i really still enjoy OLTA, some great moments on it.TUTBL is still immense...always love listening to all of it.saw them live, was epic.can't wait for new tour!


  • Registered Users Posts: 327 ✭✭DD


    did u go to their last concert? they are so great


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,401 ✭✭✭shortys94


    I was pretty mad I missed their last one but I saw them in the summer so its all good! Really cant wait for the new tour.


  • Registered Users Posts: 327 ✭✭DD


    can't wait to go again to next concert. love them

    Please be careful when discussing live events - it's getting very annoying at this stage. Thread cleaned up. If you don't know what I'm talking about, have a read of the stickies on the top of the Alternative & Indie home page.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,401 ✭✭✭shortys94


    MP3 is available to download from julianplenti.com now, 'Fun That We Have'.

    Might be worth a listen for anyone who can't wait for Interpol's next album.

    Our Love To Admire was awful
    Antics was half great half alright just.
    Turn On The Bright Lights was excellent

    I think a lot of people would tend to disagree. I can't name a weak track on either of the first albums. Please name me one!?
    And their third album, while in my opinion wasn't up to the high standards of the first two, was still great in comparison to a lot of muck out these days.
    In fact in my opinion there's only one "filler" track on it. Still a class album. Awful, it was not.
